CBN Loans: Nigeria’s debt to hit N77 trillion, says DMO

Nigeria’s Debt Management Office (DMO) on Thursday said that the next administration will inherit a public debt of N77 trillion if the N23 trillion loans from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) are securitised.

The Director-General of the DMO, Patience Oniha, made this known in a statement on Thursday.

In recent weeks, there have been heated debates on the sustainability of Nigeria’s debt amid shrinking revenue and mounting CBN loans.
